Midwest - Grayscale

Stay strong for me

At least that’s what I’ll tell her

'Cause someone’s gotta be

If I could let you in my head

You could see what I’ve been painting, 'cause it’s bittersweet

Letting go of the brush you’ve given me

We’ll hang it up for you

When we’re back in your Midwest living room

A picture point of view while I waited for you

Waiting for something to get me through

I lived these past two months now

Stumbling like a ghost

I miss you sleeping next to me naked

I’ll hang it up for you if we make it

White roses hold an angelic hue just like hers

Like a kid in the Roaring Twenties

He’ll save up all week to buy her flowers

And I’ll hold it all back

But please just know that

So come back

Please just come back

I’ll bury what I know we’re missing

And the summer nights we could be living in
